Abstract
The invention is a method for enhanced growth of mycelium in culture including the key steps of seed blend choice from among corn, rice, quinoa, chia, canihua, cumin and flax seed, germinating the seed blend prior to inoculating the mycelium starter, and conducting the mushroom cultivation with ORP enhanced water and particular transmissions of sound and particularly colored light. Mushrooms grown by such a method not only mature in 13-15 days rather than 21 days, but have an enhanced nutritional and medicinal profile along with absence of unwanted organism contaminants whose unwanted overgrowth occurs during days 16-21 (or days 16-28) of typical mushroom culture.
Claims10
A method of improving the growth and constitution of edible mushrooms, comprising the steps of blending a seed-based growth substrate containing between 3 and 8 seeds selected from the group consisting of corn, quinoa, canihua, chia, cumin, flax seed and rice, moistening said seed blend with enhanced ORP water, germinating said seed-based growth substrate for between 18 and 48 hours prior to inoculating mycelium starter on said growth substrate and growing the resulting mushrooms for 13-15 days in the presence of one or more of the sound frequencies selected from the group consisting of 396 Hz, 417 Hz, 444 Hz, 528 Hz, 639 Hz, 741 Hz and 852 Hz and also in the presence of transmission of colored light.
